ASICS GEL-NYC 2.0 Trainers - Lake Grey/ Piedmont Grey - UK 10.5

While these trainers offer excellent cushioning and support for daily wear and light training, they are not specifically designed for the demands of marathon running. For competitive or long-distance running, ASICS offers specialized running shoe models.

The GEL-NYC 2.0 features FF BLAST™ PLUS cushioning, which is lighter and offers a more responsive and comfortable feel compared to the cushioning in the first version.

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, cushioning, and structural integrity of the shoe. Hand washing and air drying is the preferred method.

Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel secure without slipping. If unsure, consider trying them on in person or referencing the size chart.

For optimal comfort and performance, it's recommended to wear moisture-wicking athletic socks. The material of the sock can impact overall comfort and how the shoe fits.

The ASICS GEL-NYC 2.0 trainers are not waterproof. They are designed with mesh uppers for breathability, which means they will not keep your feet dry in wet conditions. Water-resistant sprays can offer some protection, but they are not fully waterproof.

Consider trying a half or full size up, as these trainers can run slightly small for some individuals. Ensure laces are loosened during initial wear.

The FF BLAST™ PLUS cushioning is designed for longevity, but performance can be affected by heavy wear or impact. Ensure the shoes are clean and dry; moisture can sometimes affect material feel.

Check the rubber outsole for embedded debris or wear. Clean the outsole thoroughly with a damp cloth and brush. If the outsole is significantly worn down, it may be time to consider a replacement.
